Reeva Steenkamp’s mother said her
daughter confided in her before passing away that she had not yet had a s*xual
relationship with Oscar Pistorius who killed her last year Valentine’s day.
June, 68, said she believed her
daughter - who had only been dating Pistorius for less than three months - had nagging
doubts about their compatibility and felt the relationship was coming to an end
before she was shot dead by him.
“She had confided to me that she hadn’t slept
with him. They’d shared a bed, but she was scared to take the relationship to
that level. She wouldn’t want to sleep with Oscar if she wasn’t sure.
“I believe their relationship was
coming to an end. In her heart of hearts, she didn’t think it was making either
of them happy, ” she said.
Her mom, who is due to release a
book Reeva: a Mother’s Story, added that Pistorius is “gun-toting”, “trigger
happy” , “possessive” and “shifty”.
In an extract from her book in Times Magazine, she said: “It was Reeva’s bad luck that she met him, because sooner or later he would have killed someone. I do believe that.”
